The canal is seen here looking east-north-east from beneath the arch of Minworth Green Bridge. This canal's original purpose was to provide a link between Birmingham and the south east of England, by way of the Coventry Canal and the Oxford Canal. John Smeaton was the engineer, and the canal was completed in 1789.
